The Sickness

*Epologue*

Dib and Zim sat in class, completely bored out of their minds with what Miss Bitters was going on about, which was always about death and doom. The twelve-year-old soon turned his attention toward the nearby window; letting his mind wonder as he began to think of everything that had happened. It had been weeks since the fight with Zim's ex-leaders and Zim had gotten better after a while. Dib was surprised that the medicine actually worked even with Zim being from an entirely different race. He was extremely glad his plan had worked. Dib didn't know what he would've done if Zim hadn't made it. Though he was Irken, Zim still went to Earth school and no one recognized him as being an alien from another planet. Everyone soon thought it was a bit weird to see that Dib never talked about Zim being an alien, and that he and Zim had become good friends. Regardless of what had happened all those months ago; all the fighting they had gone through, Dib found it kinda funny that he didn't realize before how he and Zim actually had a lot in were both outcasts, trying to fit in with their race, only to realize that they probably never will.

Dib shifted in his seat. He never knew that his once arch enemy and rival he had been fighting for nearly two years would actually become such good friends in the end. Since the incident, Zim never tried to prove that he was 'normal' since there was no point to put up a charade anymore now that he wasn't planning to take over the Earth, though he still wore a disguise whenever he went to class. It was then that Dib turned to look over at the young Irken in his seat. Zim looked like he would do anything to just get out of the class so he wouldn't have to deal with another lecture from Miss Bitters. Dib nearly jumped when the bell finally rang. As everyone rose from their seats and began to head for the door, Jessica watched Dib leave. As he passed by, Dib could see a bit of nervousness in her expression, which he felt quite pleased that she hadn't said anything offensive since the day she had completely insulted Zim when he had been sick and possibly dying.

"You seem quite happy." Zim said, snapping Dib out of his thoughts.

"Well, we've been through a lot of stuff those past few weeks," Dib replied.

"I'm glad you had chosen to save me when I was gravely ill." Zim grinned. "Well, that's what friends are for." Dib replied with a smile.

"And I hope we'll never see see those horrible ex-leaders again."

"Hmm... I wonder whatever happened to them." Zim said, thoughtfully.

Meanwhile, a lone cylinder shape object drifted carelessly through the vastness of space. Tallest Red and Tallest Purple sat against the walls looking expremely bored and upset.

"I still blame you for this." Purple groaned. "Me?" Red huffed.

"You were the one who had the idea in the first place!" Purple snapped. "And now we're floating out in the middle of nowhere! No food, no snacks, and no one to rull over!"

"Well, how was I supposed to know that stupid kid would blow up the Massive?" Red shouted. Soon, they calmed down again.

"You know," Red started. "Since we don't have people to rull over, we can just relax and not have to deal those lesser than us."

"You know, we actually could." Purple agreed. "At least it'll be quiet and..." He trailed off as he and Red looked out and saw they were heading toward the sun.

Their eyes grew wide.

"I hate you." Purple finished.

They soon screamed in horror as their escape pod soon collided into the sun. Back on Earth, Zim and Dib were on their way down the road.

"So you wanna hang out or something?" Dib grinned as they continued walking.

"Well, Gir has been kinda out of the house a lot." Zim said, looking thoughtful. "Sure, Zim would be happy to 'hang out' for the day." He replied with a grin.

Dib smiled.

"Awesome," He replied. "I heard 'Eagle Eye' is out in theaters." He mentioned as they continued down the road. "I've really wanted to see it."

"Zim would be happy to attend this movie." Zim replied.

As they continued down the street, they were unaware of the small blasts of metal coming from the surface of the sun.
